Aftermath. Henrik Plenge Jakobsen. August 15 - September 13, 2025
The works in this exhibition are all aftershocks of something I observe in our time and don't quite know what to do with. There are three reverberations, three works.
Decades ago, a narwhal was harpooned in the sea between Greenland and Canada. The tusk was then separated from the animal's body. Two casts of the spiral-twisted tooth have now been joined together into one. Recreated in the form of a weapon and its own doppelgänger.
In an underground auditorium in Paris, a few hundred people gathered before summer to listen to a remastering of a popular electronica release from 2000. The test pressing was played on a turntable from an empty stage. We sat on the floor, some lying down, most with their eyes closed, all enveloped in coloured light. Perhaps sky blue, lavender, and pale yellow can be more than an imaginary defence.
